Hot N Sour soup-With a unsualingredients -used cottage cheese stock (chena water/chena pani).

Preparation Time: 5 Minutes
Cooking Time:  12 minutes
Total Preparation Time : 17 Minutes

Hot n sour soup prepared using chena pani/cottage cheese stock.As I have prepared chhena/cottage cheese today to use it in a recipe. So thought to make soup out of the waste (as I use to throw it). This stock is used for kneading dough n dal/lentil also.

When we prepare chena/ cottage chesse out of milk, we use lemon or white vinegar to curdle the milk.The taste of the water is little sour in taste coz of lemon /vinegar, so thought to make hot n sour soup out of the stock instead of vegetable stock or plain water. And believe me the experiment turned out to be delicious without any change in the authentic taste.
